SD2411. Verse by William Surtees Cook

Listed in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 28, 361.

Ob. Nov. 23. 1860

_________

 

Oh, think that while your’re weeping here,

Her hand a golden harp is stringing,

And with a voice serene and clear,

Her ransom’d soul, with out a tear,

Her savior’s praise is singing!

_________

 

And think that all her pains are fled,

Her toils and sorrows gone for ever;

While he, whose blood for her was shed,

Has placed upon his servant’s head

A crown that fadeth never–

Publication: None traced.

Manuscript: Armstrong Browning Library, Altham Archive.
